If you're going to outright lie to my face & get caught, you'd better have a proof that you had discovered a brain tumor after having told the lie, pictures of the tumor being removed, and a doctor's note explaining "healthy now - no more liar liar pants on fire".
- sigstoat 8y agoit sounds like they were trying to get a sales job. maybe the doctor's note should read "healthy now - much better at lying, won't be caught next time"?
- hfdgiutdryg 8y agoWhy? Management lies to employees constantly. Sales lies to customers constantly. Why the sudden insistence on honesty?
- bduerst 8y agoSo it's okay to lose an arm if you've already lost a leg? Because honesty is better than dishonesty?
- ironjunkie 8y agoAhah, that's what management tells you. While telling you at the same time that you shouldn't ask for a raise as they don't give those out this year.
- bduerst 8y agoSo you lie to your coworkers and customers, because someone else lied to you at some point? I'm not sure I quite follow...
- ironjunkie 8y agoIt is all a game in which everyone pretends to be honest, but walks a fine line of acceptable lies. I'm only reacting to the "feel good" line that everyone is honest. This is not the way it works and we should not be duped to believe that.
- bduerst 8y agoBelieving that honest > dishonesty is not the same as being duped into believing that there are no dishonest people... This article is proof enough of that, and nobody is making that claim.
- hfdgiutdryg 8y agoI have no idea what you're trying to say.
- salvar 8y agoDo you feel disrespected when management lies to you?
- jessaustin 8y agoDo you feel disrespected when you get wet while walking in the rain?
- salvar 8y agoNevermind.
- hfdgiutdryg 8y agoI've been told that management is serving the best interests of the company, and therefore anything they do is justified. However, as a mere employee, it is wrong to apply the same logic to my own best interests.
- amorphid 8y ago> I've been told that management is serving the best interests of the company, and therefore anything they do is justified Maybe. I can say I want to work for a company where management feels acting in the workers' best interests is in line with the company's bests interests.
- asveikau 8y agoWith comments like this, can you believe it that people say Big Tech has an ethics problem?
- hfdgiutdryg 8y agoI'm not much of a liar. But I certainly note that employers insist on honesty while regularly being entirely dishonest themselves. It's a two-way street.
- badpun 8y agoIt's good (profitable) for the company for management to lie to their employees. It's not good (profitable) for the company for employees to lie to managers.
